Sandwich structures are mainly used by its low weight and high strength supporting

compressive and flexural strengths. Nowadays, sandwich beams are requested in many
applications like civil construction which demands an analytical method to predict its
properties. This paper brings a numeric analysis model for sandwich beams assisted by
software, builded with Python algorithms. Software uses a database with laminates and cores
properties that will be used on calculus and each one will be selected by user. User interface
will be added to the software, expected to improve user experience. Analysis are based on
classical laminate theory and Timoshenko plain beams deflection process is considered due to
transversal shear deformation.
